Feedback for my Stable Build

:crazy_face: Hiya everyone! I’ve been working on creating Low-Poly textured stables that I’ll hopefully be using in the future!

I’ve been debating if I need to add more detail to it or add more texture to the stables OR even adding more objects inside the stables.

I have tried changing the colors, but I am perfectly happy with them. I’d really appreciate any improvements/suggestions you have!

The Stables

Thank you for reading :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

Is that a horse stable, right? Why does it look like a motel?
Maybe you can combine all of the stables under one big roof.
Looks like the horses getting a comfortable stable! :sweat_smile:

LOL! Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll see what it looks like under an extra cozy roof! I want my horses to be living the luxury! I’ll try adding a roof thank you! :crazy_face

To me you should make the peach like color darker.

You should add more decor to some of the stables, ex: hay.

Overall Feedback

Whilst your stable building does have the right shape, and looks very much like a stable, there are definitely a few additional things that I would choose to personally modify and add within your build to make it slightly better. Right now, your colour scheme doesn’t fit the actual build itself, and I think you could also try and build within a more ambitious style, instead of playing it safe by using SmoothPlastic parts with pastel colours, which therefore creates a cartoony style most of us are familiar with.


Colours

Despite you being happy with your colour selection, I would definitely still change it, as you have multiple beige colours without much difference in your walls and windows. You have used grey and white parts to try and create a metallic look, which is always a positive start. Your building isn’t very easy on the eyes because there’s no difference within the colours that you use. The beams supporting the roof are the same colour as the walls and windows, whilst your doors do have a slightly darker colour to them.

If you haven’t been using the Color3 yet, it’s honestly one of your best friends in building! It can help you get perfect colours for your desired building and is something I use more than the regular colour selector. You can play around with the colour itself, and the brightness/darkness of said colour. That being said, you should make the roof slightly darker with a whiter tone, and your windows could possibly be darker in colour, similar to your doors. These are only suggestions, your call!


Materials

You’ve only used one material within your build, which is SmoothPlastic, except from the sand which I assume is an obvious design choice for the sand within the stables themselves. For this particular build, I would probably choose to use Wood and Wood Planks, or find your own textures of your own. This could probably help you achieve more depth within your build and create differences where mot of the build seems repeated and slightly bland. Also, you could consider placing textures over materials to make loads of different combinations and styles, just don’t go overboard if you want to optimise it.


Details

You should definitely add some more detail in the form of props, vegetation and some lighting too. Those horses shouldn’t be living in the dark! :horse_racing:
Here are some ideas of things you could consider adding to make your build better.

  • Plenty of crates and wooden boxes
  • Hay barrels, buckets of water and apples
  • More bushes, along with some trees around the back of the stables
  • Some different farming equipment
  • Lanterns and/or gas lamps outside stables to provide lighting

Most of the time, you can never add too much detail into anything, unless of course you don’t want your build to run like a toaster in game! Good luck with your build, as you’ve definitely got the basics down and have plenty to improve on.

You could scatter some hay around the stables or inside them, make the stables a little messy.

Your stable building looks decent and i like, how it’s the right shape to the ones in real life, and it looks very much like a stable. But there seems to be a few things you could, still improve on to make your build look better. As for the colour scheme you have gone it doesn’t, seem to fit the build i would recommend! you change it as it looks like a cartoony style and. I believe you want it to look like a normal stable! with wood parts on your build overall you have done, a great job on it.

Stable Color
The stable color you have, implement on your building looks good. However i’ll change it as you can see the wood beams, you added to the roof are the same! color as the walls and windows. I’ll still change it. You could add different colors to your building to get the perfect colors your. Looking for i’ll just play around with other colors to find, the right one that fits on your building as suggested above! i would make the roof a little darker, and the windows you. Could make the poles metal instead of having it a light brown color! Of course, you could take my suggestions however you like!!

Material
As by looking at your stable i see you only implemented one, material on your building you could change it up instead of using the SmoothPlastic, i would recommend you go with a Wood Material because stable mostly, have that kind of material on there! building. So it could look more like a stable as! well this well help you create different things to your building to look more better, and you could place your own textures on your building to look a lot. More better just make sure you find the right, textures to fit in with the whole building as that could. Create a lot of different textures styles, consider adding those details to your stable.

Other Details
You could add some more details to your stable, like vegetation trees, potted plants, rocks, ect. And add some lights on the beam parts and the building. Itself as said above by @Squidzyee! Here is also some details i’ll, add to your building to look a lot more better.

Equipment

  • Plenty of hay inside on the floor part
  • Buckets, plastic slow feeder
  • Hay bags, nets & racks
  • Wheelborrow, shovels, rake,
  • Haystay to carry hay bales, tie ring, trailers,
  • Tractor, combine harvester, and other farming equipment
  • Tack, Racks, Hooks & Trunks

Most of the stuff i listed you don’t have to add all of it. If you plan on adding different details go for it. Overall your build looks really good, you have really done a decent job on it these are some things you can add to improve it a little more. Keep it up!

Your stable looks realistic. It’s just missing a few details, such as:

  • Vegetation: Tree’s, flowers, etc
  • Hay bales
  • Lights
  • Shovels, rakes, etc
  • Crates
    Like @z4ayn mentioned,

Inside of a stables tend to have hay scattered inside of them, which would be a great detail to add.
Overall your build looks fantastic.
